Means you’ve spent an awful lot of time with no belief, on the other hand.

Id agree with last round of 2002 against the Blues for us. The whole package of what the result meant and the game itself. To top it off I went with 3 Carlton supporters. Was like high strength Viagra wrapped up in a sports package
I believed when I saw we were playing Geelong in finals.

I’m sure you did. I just believed by the halfway point of most seasons.
You have had your belief dashed a lot then. Especially by Richmond. There is help available PB.

No more than any other fan base, if they’ve ever had any belief at all.

2007, Round 6, Geelong v Richmond at Marvel, Geelong wins by 157 and it kick starts everything. They won 54 of their next 57 games.

You had your 4peat belief dashed by a lanky four eyed campaigner from America and upset tummys
Doesn't really work sorry PN as we were hoping for a 2peat at that stage. We got one straight after. So you delayed rather than dashed our hopes. Well, Collingwood and gastro + Dusty injury + cheatpires x a little bit of masonry.
Pretty sure that is where the freemason movement commenced. They should be called the freekickmasons.

Was it you who picked me up on my grammar earlier on this thread(post #76?)
But yes, Cox had his way with us in the air, and from the umpires. Still as you say, it allowed you to yet again do something we haven't quite managed as yet, ie lose a Grand Final to a team from another state.

Yeah i did mate. You contradicted yourself though. I just speak fluent Collingwood. We dont discriminate losing to states though. Were flat out trying to win one against anyoneWas it you who picked me up on my grammar earlier?

iirc, they did that after missing finals the year before, Jnr was handed some home truths.
The sit down was after the round 5 loss to North at Kardinia which left Geelong sitting at 2-3 for the season. Again, iirc, it may have been at Scarlett's place and Chappy may have been particularly vocal.

Last round of 2002 you lost to the Bulldogs by 7 goals.
Of course, I know that you probably meant 2022, not 2002, but given you'd just taken a cheap shot at another poster for a typo I don't reckon you deserved a mulligan on yours.

Surprised that 2002 semi final against Melbourne is forgotten, one of the best games I've seen and Adelaide won it. They had a huge lead by 40 points, lose it, then had a deficit by 28 points deep into the third quarter, then clawed back to win by 12. That's on top of Adelaide getting screwed over by the AFL and having to play a home final at the MCG.

Essendon choice is a bad pick, the best game I've ever seen was their round 16, 2001 match against North Melbourne.Each AFL club’s best win of the last 25 years

Grand Final wins excluded. I'd probably argue that the list should be limited to H&A wins then, as surely if you exclude Grand Finals, the next best win would be a PF, then a QF/SF and so on. But anyway...
Do you agree with the choice for your club? And if a final has been selected for your club, what would you choose if it was H&A wins only?

Kind of flattering/hilarious that eight of the other 17 clubs have wins against Geelong nominated as their most memorable.
For Geelong, The 2012 Hawkins goal after the siren was unbelievable and the culmination of an amazing see-sawing game, but I'd have to give the nod to the Jimmy Bartel point after the siren against Hawthorn in 2009. We'd hit the skids after the famous loss to St Kilda (the first time two 14-0 teams had met) and were trailing all day against the Hawks, who were fighting to stay in top eight contention. And, oh, we'd lost both key defenders to injury during the game, so Darren Milburn and Andrew Mackie were matching up on Buddy and Roughead.
On paper, the result didn't change where either side finished in 2009, but I'll always believe that it was much bigger than that and for Geelong, it was the boost we needed as we started to fall off St Kilda's pace during that season. It gave us the belief that we were still good enough to get it done.
Along with Bartel's point after the siren, the match was also famous for being arguably Selwood's greatest AFL game to that point in his career and for Josh Kennedy opting to handball to Franklin with the scores level in the dying stages and Franklin ultimately being wrapped up by Mackie and not getting a shot off. It would have been a big call for Kennedy to have a ping on his left on the run from about 45 out, he would have been torn to shreds if he'd put it out on the full. Ultimately probably the right decision by Kennedy and just a fantastic run down tackle by Mackie.
